I was not a fan of Chris Farley, can you handle that? Is that a problem? I know he was loved by many and regarded as a great comedian and his "Best Of" videos from SNL are widely popular, but I couldn't care less. There's only so many times I can watch a fat guy fall through a coffee table and find it funny. A routine of being loud and clumsy really isn't all that entertaining. And his movies? Were any of them good? Yes, 'Tommy Boy' was a really funny movie. It was. 'Black Sheep' was almost funny, but about a quarter of the way through it I realized that it was the exact same thing as 'Tommy Boy'. Were there any other good movies of his? He was great in 'Dirty Work' but that was Norm MacDonald's movie, and Farley wasn't credited with being in the movie I don't think. Also I've heard him compared to John Candy and John Belushi two other over weight comedians that died prematurely. I can see John Belushi, but John Candy? No, sorry, fuck that. John Candy was a comedic genius! With a ton of great movies to his credit too. So, personally, from me thumbs down to Chris Farley. But at least he died doing something he loved - Drugs and Hookers! We should all be so lucky.
